Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: grub
sorry if i' m hard to understand... it' s the first bug i report...
uppon dapper installation /boot/grub/menu.lst entries looked like that:
title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-23-386
root (hd2,4)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-23-386 root=/dev/sdc5 ro quiet splash
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-23-386
savedefault
boot
title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-23-386 (recovery mode)
root (hd2,4)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-23-386 root=/dev/sdc5 ro single
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-23-386
boot
title Ubuntu, memtest86+
root (hd2,4)
kernel /boot/memtest86+.bin
boot
### END DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST
# This is a divider, added to separate the menu items below from the Debian
# ones.
title Other operating systems:
root
# This entry automatically added by the Debian installer for a non-linux OS
# on /dev/sdb1
title Microsoft Windows XP Professional
root (hd1,0)
savedefault
makeactive
map (hd0) (hd1)
map (hd1) (hd0)
chainloader +1
while it should rather look like that(that's what worked):
title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-23-386
root (hd1,4)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-23-386 root=/dev/sdc5 ro quiet splash
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-23-386
